Small Wild Basketry Workshop

Wild basketry is an ancient craft that transforms natural materials like grasses, vines, and tree bark into functional containers. Jessica Steele will guide participants in learning how to collect, process, and weave locally sourced plants such as cattail, pine needle, birch bark, and more. Workshop will feature a presentation and basket-making demonstrations by Jessica, followed by hands-on work to create your own baskets. Over the four-hour class, students can choose to weave a larger basket or several smaller ones.
